The site is not at all porn. It's a legit psychology site. The title to my post, did, however, suggest that the site was about a beautiful woman. And did the traffic ever come crushing in! And Devi is right. No matter who writes the world's most eloquent post about campaign finance reform (a topic that relates to the way we resolve life and death issues), it would never have gotten a small fraction of the traffic. Let's just begin the title to every serious post with a catchy phrase: "Naked woman discusses campaign finance reform." Maybe shoot videos with naked people discussing serious issues. Maybe then, we can help thousands of people (who are apparently off chasing posts about sex) focus on these serious issues.

We don't have that problem talking about campaign finance reform. Isn’t it funny that we got so much response for a post that might be on a porn site?

I just wanted to apologize because I found the article I was talking about and it was written by Dan Klarmann, so that's why it didn't come up on your listings. Once again, I'm sorry for so many posts in a row... It's not my usual practice. Sorry again… promise this to be my very last post on this subject.

The reason I ask is because I remember posting a response to a short article you wrote pertaining to you being out of touch because you weren't aware of the "Devlin Case". I pretty much just raked you over the coals a bit for it stating why it was just as important a story as the coverage of dying soldiers in Iraq. But, now I look over all of your listings and I don't see it anymore. Did the problem yesterday cause it to be lost? Sorry for the double post, but did you lose an article/post?

I was typing up a comment on that Beautiful Woman article and next thing you know, I was getting a page that said "Gateway Timed Out". Hope I wasn't the straw that broke the camel's back lol.
